Emirates Open Day

I recently applied for a cabin crew position with emirates airline. On my account page it says that my application is being reviewed. I also applied for an open day session which was suppose to be held February 6th 2010, but postponed due some circumstance. I received a message from emirates saying that, I was invited to the open day in Texas or California. Though the problem is I live in New Jersey. I really want to attend the open day session, but I cant afford the ticket nor a hotel. I was wondering, if I don't attend the open-day session, will it affect my chances of getting the Job for emirates, because I truly want to work for this company. Help, Answers, Advice Please.

no it wont. i know someone who was invited to an assessment day and she couldnt make that date so she didnt turn up then she received an email saying because she hadnt shown up she was welcome to apply again after 6 months. its counted as failing the assessment day. The first time I was invited to an AD i couldnt make it so i called Emirates and told them and they said it was fine and I could apply to any other one. So as long as you contact them its not a problem.

Thats for an Assessment Day though. You might not have to contact them if its an Open Day that you cant make, but i would give them a call anyway just to be safe.

hey wonder if anyone can help. I applied for a cabin crew position at the beginning of January and my application status says, 'submitted for final review'. I have noticed that there are a few global assessment days that have dates set. Im not sure what to do what is the difference between an open day and a global assessment day? and do i need to register for one of them insted or can i register for more than one assessment day any help at all would be apreciated thanks.

you can register for any. The difference is that candidates have to be invited to an assessment day, but anyone can go to an Open Day. So usually open days are very busy and assessment days are a *little* quieter (still up to 100 people in some countries though)
